Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
You need to be more specific about what you are trying to do. Is your father alive or dead? If he is dead, was there a Will? Are there other beneficiaries/heirs? Is anyone going to contest your appointment? If not, then you can certainly file to become personal representative. I have handled MANY estates where the PRs are from out of state. It is generally not difficult. If your father is still alive, is he competent? If not, then the only way to get control would be to go through probate and be appointed guardian/conservator. This is not complicated, but it can be expensive. Feel free to send me additional facts and I will try to provide you more information.

When you become an administrator of an estate, how do you know your duties?

Even if you want to do this yourself, you should seek the advice of an attorney. It is very important to understand your duties because if you fail the court can surcharge you for any deficiency. SCAO form 573 must be sent to the beneficiaries. This form sets forth notice of your appointment and your duties.
